"An awful lot in this book. As with her magnificent CRANDOLIN, perhaps too much. Yet it is not a book measured for a market, and we need more of that. Tambour has, I hope, quite a few more coming. And I hope that the market finds her. The language she is evolving for telling the kinds of wild and biting stories she is interested in is part vernacular, part natural historian, full of wit and pulling its drama from an assumed sharing of empathy for those in the predicaments in which her characters find themselves." - Paul Voermans, "Technique of Awful: When Extremity Takes Us Past the Real", 10/22/2017, The New York Review of Science Fiction

"It would be inaccurate to say each story in The Finest Ass in the Universe takes your hand and pulls you into its world Rather, each story dunks you headlong into the vortex of its world."– Cecilia Quirk, review inThe Melbourne Review of Books

" If you are looking for an anthology which will do things to stories that you really weren’t expecting; and makes it work then The Finest Ass in the Universe is for you."– Ian O'Reilly, British Fantasy Society review
